Thats pretty vauge. Best in what way? Everyone is different and what is your purpose? That will be the judge. I have the CS and I am about comfort and still a clean ride. Flex is good but a little stiffer.

Click here for my detailed writeup on Bilstein PSS and decision making process on choosing them.
My advice - if you want to slam your car to the ground (all the time or for shows) or have the flexibility of changing the dampening from inside the car (EFDC option), get the Teins.
If you want a lifetime warranty, hard but not too harsh handling, low but not tucked/ slammed look get the Bilsteins. I believe they are also significantly less expensive than the Teins by several hundred dollars.
PS there are a number of other posts just like this if you search

Yup I checked out some sites and the pss is less expensive. I'm leaning towards those since it is a german company and must have a european type ride ala bmw. But I got a good deal for tein ha. I saw the write up on it but would like to hear more opinions about them before a unload the green. Thanks Dave once again for the advice
